    85,000 Oculus Rift Dev Kits Sold

    In this thread: People not understanding that a development kit isn't supposed to sell millions because it's not a finished product. The fact that they've sold 85k of a product that is not finished is freaking amazing and a strong testament to how much people are excited about

    Twitter: Hashtags and At-replies Are Being Phased Out

    Keep in mind that Twitter the company didn't come up with hashtags; its users did. The hashtag was created in response to the site having horrible search capabilities. If whatever they come up with that removes hashtags doesn't work just as well, you can be sure that Twitter users will just come...

    Newegg Introduces Three-Day Shipping

    That's easy to place. I don't know if you noticed all the nag screens, but this site has a financial stake in people using that Hoverhound extension, which is only useful if people don't buy directly from Newegg and instead get buy on Amazon. So you can take any mocking post about Newegg on the...

    Sony Still Not Answering DRM and Used Games Questions

    When Valve requires online activation and blocks used game sales, people gloss over it when discovering how much they love Steam. When console companies have basically the exact same requirement (except MS and Sony actually say that they have some type of yet-to-be-revealed trade-in scheme)...

    EA Drops Gun Makers, Not Their Guns

    The sole reason they did this was because there were actually a large and growing group of people starting to think that buying games that give funds to gun manufacturers via licensing fees is immoral. The result of the licensing fees is that gamers were giving money to gun manufacturers who in...

    Microsoft Reports Record 2Q Revenue of $21.5B

    Look at it this way, then. Microsoft is roughly bringing in $15.1 billion per quarter. It expects costs for FY 2013 to be $30.3 billion. This leaves $30.1 billion in profit minus some extraneous expenses that might've occurred. They're doing pretty well, I'd say.

    Blizzard Doesn't Like Windows 8 Either

    It's like all the companies that have spent millions of dollars trying to build up their own online distribution system (Battle.net is scheduled to start selling third party games), feel that Windows 8 with it's built-in Windows Store are bad for their bottom line. Shocker! Waiting for EA's...

    Distribution of Film to Cease by 2013 in the US

    More theaters are ready for the transition than you think, if my local theater (http://corydoncinemas.com/about.aspx) is any guide. They moved to 100% DLP projectors for their 7 screens last year when they added 3D. This in a town with a population of 3,000, and a county population of 40,000.

    Critical Flash Flaw Won't Be Fixed Until Next Week

    Google released an auto-update to Flash in Chrome yesterday, so Chrome users don't need to worry about it. This is why I prefer Google integrating/managing Flash in my browser. They take patches more seriously than Adobe...

    AT&T To Cap DSL Internet Data Usage At 150GB

    I would kill to have the option to get DSL where I live. At the moment, the only broadband option I have here in southern Indiana is satellite. You think 150GB limit is bad? Satellite has a 5 GB limit, after which your speed is slowed to dial-up rates. I haven't gotten it because I frankly...
